The manuscript reads ‘Lorenzi’s’; the reading of the Ruskin Library Transcript T7A is mistaken.
On Mr. Lorenzi’s room see Notebook M2 p.45, Works, 9.459, and compare Works, 36.378 [n/a], and Works, 36.349 [n/a] for Giambattista Lorenzi's book, Monumenti per servire alla storia del Palazzo Ducale dal 1253 al 1600 Venice: Visentini, 1868, dedicated to Ruskin.
Lorenzi, who worked at the Biblioteca Marciana, was introduced to Ruskin by Rawdon Brown.
